Steel Industry Faces Sharp Decline in Late 1937
A report by Walter S. Tower, executive secretary of the American Iron and Steel Institute, notes a severe slowdown in general industrial activity late in 1937 with steel output dipping to about 27 percent capacity by December and the annual average near 72 percent, despite earlier volume in autos and farm equipment. The article cites wage increases, rising hourly rates to a record, and a payroll near 660 million dollars over three years, while new orders fell as labor holidays and post Labor Day reductions hit demand.

Ex Mayor and Commission Clash Over Truck Issue
At a city commission meeting former mayor J P Cloon challenged a deduction of 1933 and 1984 personal property taxes from his city payment for a truck. The dispute over missing equipment on the traded truck led to a partial settlement: the city keeps the new truck, Cloon pays $10 toward taxes within 60 days, and missing equipment is to be replaced. Bids for a police department car followed, with Mayor Wilson backing a purchase yet decision postponed to a future meeting.
